If you have read an amplifier review or looked at the specifications for an amp, the chances are that you have come across a term such as 'Class A/B'. In fact, this is just one of a number of ...

Hang around in any of the many guitar or audiophile forums or discussion boards for long enough, and eventually you’ll come across the arguments over amplifier topologies. One of the more interesting ...

Class D amps are simple – just take an input, and use that to modulate a square wave with PWM. Send this PWM signal to a MOSFET or something, and you have the simplest class D amp in existence.

The switching amplifier, or class D amplifier, has risen quickly to prominence in consumer audio applications, from MP3 devices including mobile phone handsets to games consoles, LCD-TVs, and home ...

With active subwoofers demanding typical power levels up to 500W, building the amplifiers to meet the requirement is not without difficulty. Consider using a 50% efficient Class AB amplifier, and it’s ...

A new book authored by Robert N. Buono delves deeply into Class-D amplifiers, a crucial technology in audio designs. Buono has more than four decades of experience in analog and power electronic ...

I've been hosting an outdoor movie event for over 10 years now and have been slowly adding and upgrading equipment. There are usually around 30 people, pretty spread out and up to 50ft away from the ...

Because pulse modulation output signals are either on or off, Class D amplifiers produce far less heat than analog amplifiers. Reaching efficiencies greater than 90% compared to only 50% for analog, ...

In market for a powerful 200 WPC amp? ATI has you covered with two completely different technologies. We compare the AT4000 class A/B and the AT522NC Class-D amplifiers to help you decide. EIA 1kHz ...

Savant Systems LLC, having delivered the first Apple-based home automation and control system, has announced the introduction of a 16-channel class D amplifier for distributed audio applications.

Analog Devices has created a pair of 22V stereo Class-D audio amplifier that idle at 6mA and shut-down to microamps. MAX98415A and MAX98425A are similar, and both including envelope tracking control ...
